	Slashdot or Freshmeat had a article on DELL offering Linux... The
don't advertise it and it isn't installed for free unless you order in
mass quanities...

	It is good to see Linux makin it into the enterprise mainstream
and havin it advertised... We actually had a client from another teleco
business that actually said he'd use Linux over the commercial versions
because he felt it was 'more stable platform'... Linux does have a growing
following among businesses looking for stable, reliable platforms without
signing away their first born...

	Respectfully,
	Jeremy T. Bouse
